Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Awakened Joy opens with a clean, sharp zest of lime, quickly mellowing into a robust and earthy heart. Woody notes dominate, rich and grounding, underscored by the damp, green depth of oakmoss. As it dries down, a smoky, balsamic incense weaves through, adding a layer of sophisticated darkness without ever becoming heavy. It's a scent that feels ancient yet entirely modern, raw and refined all at once.
